Juventus have a very impressive record in European Cup semi-finals, winning eight out of 11 over the years. The last came two years ago when they beat Real Madrid 3-2 but both teams have changed quite a lot since then.

In a poll conducted by the online version of Diario AS, two-thirds of Real Madrid fans say they would prefer to face Atlético in the final having beaten their neighbours to claim their Décima and Undécima.

Atlético fans are split almost 50-50. Much like the club itself, they feel that should it be a final between the two sides, it is a positive - it means another Champions League final!

Gianluigi Buffon is one of only two players to make over 100 UEFA Champions League appearances but never lift the trophy. The other? Zlatan Ibrahimović. They're certainly not the only world-class players never to get their hands on 'Ol Big Ears (yet). How about these as a starter for ten? Michael Ballack, Patrick Vieira, Pavel Nedvěd, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Lilian Thuram, Hernán Crespo, Fabio Cannavaro, Francesco Totti, Ronaldo, Lothar Matthäus.

Maybe it’s better to meet Monaco or Real, who will spend significant energy in the fight for winning their respective league. They would rotate their players less than Atlético, who have a more defined position in the table and can manage themselves by resting players ahead of UEFA Champions League games.

On each of the previous three occasions Real Madrid knocked out Bayern in the UEFA Champions League from the quarter-final stage, the Spanish team went on to lift the trophy.

The semi-finals will witness the 143rd and final European game at the Vicente Calderón. The stadium, which opened in 1966, is being demolished later this year and Atleti are moving 16km to the newly-built Metropolitano. The Calderón has seen 104 home wins, just 14 for the away team.

This is Atleti’s fifth European semi-final in the last eight years – and they won all the previous four (two apiece in the UEFA Europa League and UEFA Champions League).

More mature Real Madrid fans may still have nightmares about the Merengues' 2004 meeting with Monaco. The then nine-time European champions had one foot in the semi-finals after a 4-2 first-leg win – only for their former striker Fernando Morientes to come back to haunt them in the return, a 3-1 victory taking the Ligue 1 outfit through. A certain Mr Zidane was in the Madrid side.

Joe Walker, Madrid
Are Monaco the team to avoid? Diario AS think so, if you're Real Madrid. "There's many reasons, but the most evident is the characteristics of Jardim's side: they're young, talented and have nothing to lose. All the pressure would be on Madrid, which is something they do not like.

"Being the overwhelming favourites can be daunting. Besides, since Zidane took the reins, Madrid have been at their absolute best in big games and drawing Atlético or Juventus would leave the tie 50-50."

fr3do:
your friend dived!

Most pool deaths are caused by diving.
He did, obviously. Interestingly, I didn't see him diving because I was submerged. I only felt a great thud and when I popped back up, others who were not in the pool started pointing in my direction. He sank so fast while struggling to stay afloat.

As a response to your initial post, one cannot curb pool deaths, unfortunately. I think a better way of minimizing deaths would be to make more pool floats available in the water. It helps those who can't swim. In my recent trip to PH, I came out of my hotel room one morning, decided to use the pool like I would do. I did a couple of back and forth swims for almost 10 minutes and proceeded back to my room, only for these two guys to walk up to me, asking if the pool is deep. It was a funny moment in time because the pool is not only wide, it was so deep that its slope must have been 9ft deep.

I am forced to agree with you on the diving part though but providing more pool floats would save a whole lot.

Truth is, adjourning the case for that long is unhealthy. It is quite interesting that you, an anti-Buhari, is interested in the prosecution of a corrupt public official under a man you loathe, whereas, Jonathan whom most of you worship and revere did nothing.

APC lost Rivers,Akwa Ibom etc because the card readers was not included in the electoral act.The supreme court first gave that judgement in lagos before repeating it in other states.You don't just start harassing Judges because your party lost electoral cases.

Well shebi he will still bring the cases to the supreme court.After all his anbracadabra Justice Onnogen is now the CJN.Lets see how far he will go
@the emboldened, not true! The problem is that the judiciary itself riddled with corruption, just as the other two arms of government. OBJ had his fair share with the judiciary, the same as Jonathan.

How did you beat me to thishuh

I could remember mentioning this on a particular thread. It is funny though. Obiano is a politician and would exploit every available means to win. If the PDP claims that Obiano neglected Nnewi, Ojukwu's hometown, I believe it is only natural that the people vote him or against him.

Some politicians went as far as using a dove, assumed to be the Holy Spirit in their poster. The one below is an example:

Anambra election: Stop using Ojukwu’s name to deceive our people – PDP warns Governor Obiano

https://cdn1.dailypost.ng/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/chief_willie_obiano-620x400.jpg

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Anambra State, has warned the state Governor, Willie Obaino, to desist from using the name of late Igbo warlord, Chukwuemeka Ojukwu, to deceive people of the state into voting for him during the November 18, 2017 governorship election in the state.

Chairman of the state Chapter of the party, Kenneth Emeakayi, in a statement in Awka, described Obaino’s action as deceitful and nauseating.

Emeakayi claimed that by frequently dropping the name of Ojukwu, he was inadvertently acknowledging that he had not recorded any achievement in the past three years to earn him another electoral victory.

In a statement he personally signed, Emeakayi said, “During the campaigns for the 2010 gubernatorial election, the major streets of Anambra State were flooded with a particular billboard bearing the photograph of our great leader, Ojukwu raising the hand of former governor Peter Obi, with an inscription: ‘This is my last wish.’

“Having won the 2010 gubernatorial election, the APGA government of Anambra State under former Governor Peter Obi erected and hoisted new billboards in all major streets of Anambra State, in honour and to immortalize the pride and symbol of the Igbo nation, Dim Chukwuemeka Ojukwu.

“Similarly, every single billboard and APGA campaign material for the 2013 governorship election in Anambra State had the photograph of Dim Chukwuemeka Ojukwu, and APGA leveraged heavily on Ojukwu’s name to win the said election.

“Disappointingly, no sooner did Chief Willie Obiano become the governor of Anambra State on March 17, 2014, than all the billboards bearing the photograph of Ojukwu, disappeared from the streets of Anambra State.


“But just about six months to another gubernatorial election in Anambra State, the Chief Willie Obiano-led APGA government has suddenly again remembered the name of Dim Chukwuemeka Ojukwu. Billboards are now being hoisted, while government-owned vehicles are branded with Ojukwu’s photograph.

“Amazingly, Governor Willie Obiano, in three years did not complete any single project in Dim Chukwuemeka Ojukwu’s home town of Nnewi.”

They have run out of ideas on how to improve the economy and country and are simply trying to plant loyalists in sensitive positions who will help them defend 2019 rigging

There are several Supreme court justice in Nigeria. Perhaps you have proof of the reason the FG clamped on the Justice in question?

Just as usual the FG will lose this one.Was it the supreme court that stopped the FG from arresting Babachir Lawal and Oke after they had been "suspended" pending investigations? Buhari's government is not interested infighting corruption but is rather against political opponents.
Is comprehension difficult nowhuh This is a case of false asset declaration and not Buhari. While I understand why you are pained, I am so confused as to why you would stand and align with corruption just because you hate Buhari.

This has nothing to do with Babachir and Oke, I believe. You could as well claim it is another marginalization move by the FG.

https://i1.wp.com/media.premiumtimesng.com/wp-content/files/2017/02/Supreme-Court-of-Nigeria-1.jpg?w=720

A Supreme Court Justice, Sylvester Ngwuta, was on Thursday arraigned on an eight-count charge of false declaration of asset.
Mr. Ngwuta, who is also facing fraud charges at the Federal High Court in Abuja, was arraigned by the Federal Government at the Code of Conduct Tribunal, Abuja.

He pleaded not guilty to the fresh charges.

Consequently, the Director of Public Prosecution, Mohammed Umar, who represented the Nigerian government asked the court for an adjournment to allow him present his witnesses.

The defence counsel, Kanu Agabi did not object to the request for adjournment and so the case was adjourned till July 5 for trial.

Do you realize that some people live in a hotel ??
Obviously, yes. But a hundred (100) 5 star hotel? C'mon!

histemple:
It's a basic requirement to have lifeguards (Professional Divers) if you must operate a swimming pool anywhere in the world.
penta:
There is always a life guard watching. You may not notice. When next you go to another standard swimming pool in a hotel, ask if they have one. It's a most for every standard hotel.
There are no pool lifeguards in recreational pools, for privacy reasons. The only condition wherein a lifeguard would be on standby would be during a pool party.

I remember a time I stayed a week in an hotel in Lekki. Long story short, a friend who thought swimming is natural dived from the 6ft section. Luckily, I and couple of other friends were there. He had a fill of the pool before we dragged him out. Funniest part is, the hotel manager came out and asked if he should call an ambulance. Some of my friends were angry that there should have been a lifeguard on standby and kept on ranting about how they would have lost a friend. I couldn't argue much because I had always known how it works. We never had a pool party, so there was no need for a lifeguard.

The hotel in question is a very popular one in Lekki and it's a four-star hotel. This happened about four years ago.

I think the problem here is mistaking a sporting pool for a recreational pool within an hotel.

Lol! There are no life guards and recreational pools. I have never seen one myself. The question should have been 'are pool floats (or floaters) provided to noobs who intend to use the pool?

There are life guards, however, in sporting pools, and it's mandatory to have them.
